BULLDOGS... 3 ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS MENTION THE SKY HOOK AND PEOPLE KNOW YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR...THE FORMER LOS ANGELES LAKERS STAR...THE HALL OF FAME CENTER MADE AN APPEARANCE AT SOUTHERN CT STATE TONIGHT...ABDUL JABBAR WON SIX CHAMPIONSHIPS DURING HIS STORIED 20 YEAR CAREER... OFF THE COURT HE WAS OUTSPOKEN ON SOCIAL ISSUES...AND STILL IS TODAY....HE'S ALSO A CANCER SURVIVOR AND BEST SELLING AUTHOR..ONE OF HIS OLD TEAMMATES WES MATTHEWS WAS IN THE CROWD TO HEAR KAREEM TALK A
BOUT BEATING CANCER...AND CURRENT PLAYERS NOT BEING AFRAID TO STAND UP FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVE IN...ABDUL JABBAR ALSO HAD SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT WHETHER STEPH CURRY AND THE WARRIORS...COULD BEAT THE SHOWTIME LAKERS. 3 (STEPH ISN'T GOING TO SCORE LIKE THAT. HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ELSE BECAUSE HE'S GOING TO GO UP AND MICHAEL COOPER'S GOING TO BE PART OF HIS UNIFORM. IT'S A PLEASURE FOR CONNECTICUT TO HAVE HIM HERE AND LISTEN TO HIS STORIES LISTEN TO HIS LIFE BECAUSE HE'S BEEN MISUNDERSTO
OD. BUT I HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING HIM KNOWING HIM AND HAVING DINNER WITH HIM, BREAKING BREAD WITH HIM. MY MOTHER WHO'S HERE WHO'S 80 YEARS OF AGE, THATS HER NUMBER ONE BASKETBALL PLAYER, SHE ALWAYS SAID I WANTED MY SON TO PLAY WITH KAREEM, WHICH NEVER HAPPENED, WES GOT THAT PRIVILEGE. )ABDUL JABBAR IS THE NBA'S ALL TIME
